Thou puttest my feet also in the stocks, and lookest narrowly unto all my paths; thou settest a print upon the heels of my feet.

Verse 27 is found in chapter 13 of Job. Job asks God for two things: to withdraw his hand from him and not terrify him with his presence. He then returns to reflecting on human frailty and asks why God subjects such a limited creature to judgment. The section connects mortality with the mystery of divine justice.

Du hast meinen Fuß in den Stock gelegt und hast acht auf alle meine Pfade und siehst auf die Fußtapfen meiner Füße,
Pones además mis pies en el cepo, y guardas todos mis caminos, Imprimiéndolo a las raíces de mis pies.
Pones mis pies en el cepo, vigilas todos mis caminos y trazas un límite para las plantas de mis pies.
Pourquoi mettre mes pieds dans les ceps, Surveiller tous mes mouvements, Tracer une limite à mes pas,
E metta i miei piedi ne’ ceppi, E spii tutti i miei sentieri, E stampi le tue pedate in su le radici de’ miei piedi!
Também pões os meus pés no tronco, e observas todos os meus caminhos, e marcas os sinais dos meus pés.
你把我的腳鎖上木枷, 察看我一切的道路, 為我的腳掌劃定界限。
